Arrow Lake is Intel's code name for the Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) desktop processors, enthusiast mobile processors and mainstream mobile processors.[1][2] Arrow Lake desktop processors will ship on 24th of October, 2024, with Arrow Lake mobile computers to follow in early 2025.[3] Initially Arrow Lake was targeted to use the Intel 20A process node for the compute tile and TSMC nodes for other tiles. In 2024 Intel decided to drop Intel 20A,[4][5] so Arrow Lake is expected to use only the TSMC process.
